Which Should You Buy?
A legendary scent, oft-mourned and highly sought after since its discontinuation. This oriental gem takes the original Amour's comforting rice-pudding sweetness and enriches it with a deep, smoky incense and benzoin embrace. It's a powerhouse of warmth and sophistication, but be warned: a light touch is key to avoid overwhelming its magic.
This amber is a beast, a love-it-or-hate-it powerhouse that demands attention. It's not for the faint-hearted, nor for those seeking subtle sweetness. Prepare for a full-on, kaleidoscopic amber experience.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its potent projection and longevity, combined with its rich amber and incense profile, makes it less suited for a daily office wear. However, these same characteristics, along with its 'intoxicating' and 'sensual' nature mentioned by reviewers, make it perfect for date nights and formal events, particularly in cooler weather.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its nuclear performance and strong sillage make it unsuitable for most office environments, but perfect for making a statement on a night out or a formal event. The rich, warm accords lend themselves well to cooler weather, though some find it versatile for milder days. Due to its intensity, it's not a casual or sport wear.
